Award-Winning ISEE Tutors in Ann Arbor, MI

I am a board-certified, licensed naturopathic doctor. Before becoming a doctor I spent several years tutoring and teaching. I have worked with students of all ages, from 3 year olds learning phonics to graduate students studying histology and physiology. I specialize in general sciences, medical sciences, reading comprehension, literary analysis, and composition. I love working with students of all ages and I love to teach.... I love teaching and I love working with kids. I understand that a good teacher needs to combine perception, patience, persistence, and respect. A gifted teacher discerns the uniqueness in each learner, and then tailors their lesson to that learner. I am able to recognize my students' learning needs, and I shape my language in a way that makes information more accessible and digestible. I believe passionately that education elevates both the student and the community, and I approach teaching with the seriousness and devotion that every learner deserves.

I have been teaching in the education field for seventeen years and I really enjoy it. I also have four children of my own whom I get a chance to really enjoy now that I work from home.... My teaching philosophy is to always help the student, even if it involves giving extra time. Many students learn by modeling and doing. Learning does not always have to be verbal.... In a typical first session with a student, I would ask questions first to get to know them a little. Find out what do they mostly like to do and ask about interests and hobbies.

...shy, some are outgoing; some are academically driven, and some are interested in other things. I take these aspects into account when teaching. I am presently teaching 6th grade special education at an online school. I have previously worked at "bricks-and-mortar" schools for 3 years full time and 5+ years as a substitute. Personally, I love books. Reading and talking about them is a great pleasure of mine. I also like word games and puzzles....

...watch the incremental progress, as he/she masters the material were working on. Initially, I was hired by Kaplan Institute to teach ACT & SAT prep courses. I originally viewed tutoring as a part-time job to help finance graduate school, but I soon branched out into tutoring on my own and have enjoyed it so much that I have continued long into my college teaching career, which also spans more than fifteen years.... Tutoring is about people as much as it is about the subject matter. The most important consideration in is providing an efficient and pleasant opportunity to learn. That really comes down to providing relevant information in a caring, patient, understandable, and interesting manner. It's a lot easier to learn - and to tutor -- if both of the participants are smiling.

...my pre-med and business endeavors. I have not only an interest, but a motivation to help others. I have helped students get into Ivy League schools as well as other top universities across the country with top scholarships. I tutor in all subjects from French to Essay Writing and Algebra to Chemistry! I want my students and tutees to see the value in themselves and know that they can accomplish anything with determination and hard...
